European Leagues president Claudius Schaefer says Gianni Infantino has no future at FIFA and should not continue as its president. The remarks are reported by multiple outlets, which present Schaefer’s position as a direct challenge to Infantino’s leadership.
The articles describe Schaefer as arguing that Infantino’s influence has increased over time, framing the statement as part of broader calls for leadership change at FIFA. While the outlets differ slightly in wording, they converge on the core claim: Schaefer questions Infantino’s suitability to remain in charge, and suggests that Infantino is still attempting to stay in the role despite criticism.
Taken together, the coverage portrays the comments as coming from a European football governance body that is publicly opposing Infantino’s continued tenure. The reports do not indicate that Schaefer represents FIFA’s broader membership, but they underscore that at least one prominent regional leagues organisation is taking a hard line against the FIFA president.
